From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Pressure (symbol: P) is the force per unit area applied in a direction perpendicular to the surface of an object. Gauge pressure is the pressure relative to the local atmospheric or ambient pressure. DefinitionPressure is an effect which occurs when a force is applied on a surface. Pressure is the amount of force acting on a unit area. The symbol of pressure is P.

Q. ok soe i have few ?'s please help 1. What does pressure mean when they say standard pressure? what does it mean? what does the word "pressure" mean in chemical reaction or in atmospheric pressure? 2. Also how does pressure affect enthalpy. When something is at constan pressure, what does that mean? 3. What is entropy and what exactly does it mean? Asked by s - Mon Jun 15 22:34:55 2009 - - 1 Answers - 0 Comments A. standard pressure is technically 101.3kPa or 1 atmosphrere.. this would mean the pressure you are feeling right now..- basically pressure-in terms of gases- can be changed. think of it like this,, in an unopened bottle of coke, there is a lot of pressure, since its hard to squeeze,, but once you open the cap,, the pressure is decreased adn its easier to squeeze... --enthalpy is basically heat --entropy is like the "randomness" of the system...a gas will have greater entropy than a solid... also natural reactions tend to form products wtih greater entropy and lower enthalpy (this previous statement, might not be true).. --look up more in your text book Answered by shish_101 - Mon Jun 15 23:02:19 2009 From Yahoo Answer Search: "pressure" |
